Suncorp Bank Frequent Flyer Credit Cards

10 April 2017

Earning frequent flyer points with a Suncorp Bank Credit Card

Suncorp Bank has two credit cards that allow you to directly earn frequent flyer points:

The Clear Options Platinum credit card. This is Suncorp Bank's most premium personal credit card. It requires a minimum income of $35,000 and comes with a credit limit of up to $30,000. It also has a standard variable interest rate on purchases of 20.74% p.a. While the Clear Options Platinum gives you complimentary membership to the Suncorp Bank Rewards program, you can choose to earn Qantas Frequent Flyer points for an annual fee of $49. You can then earn 1.25 Qantas Frequent Flyer point for every $1 spent (capped at $4,000 per statement period).

The Clear Options Business credit card. Designed for small to medium enterprises, this credit card allows you to earn Qantas points for your spending when you opt in to the Premium Rewards program. There is an additional annual fee of $69 for this option, which applies for each card listed on the account. You can then choose between earning Suncorp Bank Reward points or Qantas Frequent Flyer points. Note that when points are redeemed for Qantas Frequent Flyer Points, they will be redeemed at a rate of 2 Suncorp Bank Reward points for 1 Qantas Frequent Flyer point. The initial redemption for this option must be 10,000 points and subsequent redemptions must be in fixed blocks of 10,000 points.

Note that you must already be a member of the Qantas Frequent Flyer program to be eligible to earn Qantas points with a Suncorp credit card, and Qantas may apply a fee for new members. For further conditions around earning Qantas Frequent Flyer points with either the Suncorp Clear Options Platinum credit card or the Clear Options Business credit card, please refer to the relevant reward program terms and conditions on the Suncorp Bank website.

Other Suncorp Bank credit card frequent flyer options

If you have a Suncorp Bank credit card that earns Suncorp Bank Reward points, you can also choose to transfer your points to the Velocity Frequent Flyer or Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer program. As of 1 May 2016, this program offers a transfer rate of 2.5 Suncorp Bank Reward points for 1 frequent flyer point or mile, with a minimum transfer of 25,000 Suncorp Bank reward points. To make a redemption, log in to your Suncorp Bank Internet account or call Suncorp’s rewards department on 13 11 55.

Suncorp Bank offers two main ways to earn frequent flyer points through its range of rewards credit cards. Now that you know more about these options, you can compare the features of Suncorp Bank reward credit cards to decide if one will suit your needs.

Important information about this website

finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We compare from a wide set of major banks, insurers and product issuers.

finder.com.au has access to track details from the product issuers listed on our sites. Although we provide information on the products offered by a wide range of issuers, we don't cover every available product. You should consider whether the products featured on our site are appropriate for your needs and seek independent advice if you have any questions.

Products marked as 'Promoted' or "Advertisement" are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options and find the best option for you.

The identification of a group of products, as 'Top' or 'Best' is a reflection of user preferences based on current website data. On a regular basis, analytics drive the creation of a list of popular products. Where these products are grouped, they appear in no particular order.

Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment.

We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.

Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labelling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.

Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.

Please read our website terms of use for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
